First, stop scrubbing that wheel. They are expensive as all heck. What is on them? Clay, tar, brake dust... then I can give a recommendation.

If the wheels have a polished lip, scrubbing them will only damage them.
Are you sure they are not stained? Or are they just plain dirty?

Well im not sure i think is from the salt that they put on the road when it snows because previously i didnt have this prob before it snows, well i was using some cloth to try cleaning it and high preassure water for a long time and still its still there after im done tried a few time already just wont go away
